I was holding my Minolta Autocord when someone asked, "Is that a camera?" I answered, "Nope, it's my cell phone, see?"
Brilliant! Back in about 1990 it could have been, too!

I had been using Stanley Kubrick's selfie but wanted something more obscure and authentically me. This is an iPhone shot of my M2 representing my 35 years with my first Leica and first camera of my own as a teenager, coupled with a non-Leica gem in the ZM C Sonnar representing what I've learnt here in moving beyond 'Leica glass'.

Mine is a picture of my son, playing with an old Ricoh 35. This is one of my first RF picture, I enjoyed playing with the shallow DoF at the time, coming from compact P&S with tiny sensors and pinhole-sized slooow lenses...
My son loves the Bulb mode of this camera, because he can see through the lens. He keeps on asking me to open the film door!

Mine is of a lens I sold.
The proceeds have funded my habit of collecting black Leica screw thread conversions.
At the last count I had 19 and the money is all gone.
Fun while it lasted

My avatar is... Well, I do have an avatar I use on other forums but it was taken with a DSLR and I did not feel right putting it up here. I have had my M9 for quite some time now so I will go through and find something from it to put up.

Mine is an old picture (2002) of Anne Govaert, guitarist in the Dutch band Krezip. Krezip was active from 1998 to 2009 and were the youngest act ever to appear on the famous Pinkpop festival with ages 16-18 at that time (2000). Their first album was deeply brilliant, youthful, punky and candid, despite their age and limitations as musicians. They were a wonderful live act as well. Sadly, after the first success, they were restyled and their music got progressively worse. It became soulless bubblegum pop, something I will never forgive them. Despite this, their farewell concerts were sold out quickly.
I went to their concerts all the time and usually brought a camera along. What's more, concert photography shaped me as a photographer and lead to them using my pictures for artwork, fan magazines etc. Looking back, my avatar isn't really that special now, but it comes from a time when I first used professional gear and film and was awestruck by what I could do with it. What's more, Anne was the first of the band to contact me and she is of course very pretty ;-)

Mine is a screencap from a recent Family Guy episode. I was watching it when I was lurking on the forum
It does kinda sorta resemble me. I'm a big guy, brown hair, occasionally wear a 5.11 khaki vest... and yeah... I own a DSLR too. I usually use a small version of the image below for other forums.

Just me taking a shot with my Bessa R & I-61 Russian lens attached at a flickr meet in Greensboro on a fall day. Photo was taken by Stephen Charles with his Sony DSLR. Later I gave him a Minolta 50/1.7 AF lens & he gave me a large print & put this shot in his 1st Blurb book.

The lens cap is on the lens!!!!!![]()
Raid, It's a special limited edition lens to look like there's a lens cap on. Stealthy.

Mine is a self-portrait done 32 years ago. I know I had my chrome M4 and a Nikkor 21/4 made for the F system, adapted to Leica M mount. Mirror lockup lens. Wow. I can't even believe it's been that long!
